Any body have any experience doing this on Linux (Redhat ES 3) boxes running CF?
that should be even easier(i think)  since scp is native to the OS

something like this perhaps...
<cfexecute
  name = "scp"
  arguments = "somefile.txt username@someplace:somedir/"
  timeout = "6000">
</cfexecute>


This is close to what I need.

However:

I'd like to use CF 6.1 (on a Red Hat server) to SCP a file to a remote host.

CF runs as the nobody user. So I can't set up a key exchange since the nobody user doesn't have the usual directories to put the key in.

Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?
at minimum i'd say paq since my original solution works for windows folks and has value...(not that the original q was specific at all)...as for the points ...whatever
The windows solution does work in windows. Was never able to find a solution in Linux. Will accept the windows solution.
